SLSD releases 2017-2018 budget
The South Lane School
District has released its
cmay@cgsentinel.com
proposed budget for the
2017-2018 cycle. The
district has warned residents for months that, due to
legislative action on part of the budget, cuts would be
coming down the line for South Lane.
The Ways and Means Committee has allocated $7.8
billion to the state school fund. That number falls ap-
proximately $600 million short of the current standard
services level. To make up the difference, schools must
cut services, days and staff.
For South Lane School Dis-
trict, the difference comes
to approximately $1 to $1.8
million. The shortfall co-
incides with several other
factors around the district
including an estimated larger

Again
On Saturday, May 13, the
Drain Black Sox baseball
team will be honored with
a fi eld dedication at North
Douglas High School at 1
p.m. The public is wel-
come to attend.
The semi-pro baseball
team won the national title
in 1958 and joined the Or-
egon Sports Hall of Fame.
Several team members
will reportedly be present
and the old uniforms will
be out for show. There is
no charge for the event.

please contact North
Douglas High School at

kindergarten size than in previous years, the end of a
physical education grant that funded gym teachers, a
4.5 percent increase in the employer's PERS rate and a
delay in adopting the state's textbook mandates.
The latest decreased budget is the latest in a string of
shrinking budgets. The school has cut 41 days com-
bined from previous years resulting in the district's
eight-grade students having just two full school calen-
der years in their South Lane experience.
Previous cuts also means current options for budget
saving measures are slim.
South Lane will request up to four additional days cut
to attempt to come into line with its new budget but
that move will require approval.
According to the proposed budget, the school dis-
trict does not plan on laying personnel off but several
vacancies will be left unfi lled and the district warns of
larger class sizes and workloads for instructors.
The full budget can be viewed on the SLSD website.
After her husband of 26 years, Warren passed away, Martin
traveled to Bangkok, Thailand to be near her sons.
In all, Martin had fi ve children. "One has passed away," she
said. "He was 75 years old when he died."
Martin's work in Thailand lasted 18 months as she served the
Secretary, Offi ce Manager for the Commanding Offi cer of the
U.S. Army's 29th Signal Corps. It was during this time that her
youngest daughter, Marianne, attended the International School
in Bangkok.
At the end of her 18 months, Martin moved back to California
but her service wasn't done.
According to Terry, Martin began helping refugees, displaced
from the confl ict in Vietnam.
"The United States agreed to take them into our country as
refugees and immigrants. At that time, she asked for a tempo-
rary duty transfer within the Social Security Administration to
San Diego where she lived and helped register those desperate
Cambodian refugees so they could enter into American society
legally and live permanently" he said.
Two days away from her 100th birthday, Martin remembers
Thailand and she remembers working there but of her accom-
plishments, she says, "I'm not bragging, it's just what happened."
It's a quality she is apparently known for,
"She's been helping other people for decades," Terry said,
"She never asks for anything for herself."
